Vuře šohaj, vuře

Vuře šohaj, vuře v zeleným hóhoře,
Pohání koníčka po hedbávné šňúře.
Ta šňúra hedbávná na pole strhaná,
Nevěr, milá nevěř, šak je láska planá.

Nevěř, milá nevěř, a šak nemáš kemo,
šuhajek falešné pojede na vojno.
Debech měla koňa, sama bech s ňém jela,
aspoň bech viděla, kde bech zahynula.

A zahynuli já, zahyneme vobá,
jenom nás položte do jedneho hroba.
Do jedneho hroba, do jedné trohlice,
bodó vo nás plakat bestrcké děvčice.
